A COMMITMENT TO BUILDING STRONGER, BRIGHTER COMMUNITIES
OUR 1% PROMISE TO HELP LOCAL YOUTH SEEK, BELIEVE & ACHIEVE
At 2 Guys in Real Estate, giving back isn’t an afterthought — it’s part of who we are. As lifelong locals with decades of combined experience, we believe that every home we help buy or sell should make our community stronger. That’s why we donate 1% of our commission from every sale to programs that support local youth in sports, arts, education, and culture.
Through our long-standing partnership with the Reggie Stephens Foundation, we’re investing directly in the next generation — helping create opportunities, build confidence, and open doors for young people across our community. When you work with us, you’re not just finding a home. You’re helping build a brighter future for local families.
EMPOWERING YOUTH THROUGH COMMUNITY PARTNERSHIP
Our partnership with the Reggie Stephens Foundation is rooted in a shared belief: when young people are supported, the entire community thrives. RSF’s mission goes beyond traditional programming — it focuses on mentorship, resilience, leadership, and giving kids the confidence to envision a future full of possibility. By contributing 1% from every sale transaction, we help fund initiatives that provide real access to opportunities many families might not otherwise have. From athletic development to academic enrichment and cultural expression, these programs give local youth the tools to grow into strong, capable, and inspired members of our Santa Cruz County community.
ABOUT THE REGGIE STEPHENS FOUNDATION
Founded by former NFL athlete and Santa Cruz local Reggie Stephens, RSF is dedicated to helping young people realize their full potential — not just as athletes or students, but as leaders. The foundation provides programs that uplift youth through sports, arts, education, and culture, with a focus on mentorship, confidence-building, and community pride.
RSF’s philosophy, “Seek. Believe. Achieve.”, reflects its belief that every child deserves access to guidance, opportunities, and meaningful support. By creating safe, inspiring spaces for youth to grow, RSF helps shape the next generation of confident, capable, and engaged community members.
Our partnership with RSF allows us to contribute to a mission that aligns with our own:
strengthening Santa Cruz County by investing in its future.
